Gentoo has a udev rule that runs /sbin/udev_run_hotplugd (from
/etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev.rules):

# be backward compatible for a while with the /etc/dev.d and
/etc/hotplug.d/ systems
# run /etc/hotplug.d/ stuff only if we came from a hotplug event, not
for udevstart
ENV{UDEVD_EVENT}=="1", RUN+="/sbin/udev_run_hotplugd"

The path /etc/hotplug.d is hardcoded into udev_run_hotplugd - it
doesn't search anywhere else. I don't understand why it doesn't run
the agent scripts in /etc/hotplug.
